Summary: I had a great experience during this photoshoot with Simon. He was friendly and made me feel at ease. This was my first time doing something like this and now I hope to find a Simon in every city I visit to capture the backdrop of the city through the eye of someone that knows best. Thanks for a fantastic time.
